(book review on Steven Levy, In the Plex; How Google thinks, works and shapes our lives. Simon & Schuster, 2011)

Quote: "In Mr. Levy's telling, the ultimate test comes when the company attempts to conquer the Chinese search market. Hoping to export its laid-back office culture to China, Google hits one roadblock after another. Chinese product managers insist that their desks be within 100 feet of Kai-Fu Lee, Google's high-profile regional executive, and that their business cards read 'Special Assistant to Kai-Fu Lee.' Otherwise, why would anyone in China take them seriously?

Note: The review states, "By contrast [with Google], most big tech companies are as bureaucratic as a government office. Endless meetings and ­inept managers kill enthusiasm, and contradictory corporate edicts leave logic-obsessed programmers smoldering in their seats.

I forgot to add note on this review, which states, "By contrast, most big tech companies are as bureaucratic as a government office. Endless meetings and ­inept managers kill enthusiasm, and contradictory corporate edicts leave logic-obsessed programmers smoldering in their seats.
